What if Congress were comprised only of Independent voters? What sort of policies would they prefer?
Would the legislation they pass be more conservative or more liberal? For over a year now, Resurgent
Republic has been surveying Independent voters, asking them to choose their preference between the
policy positions of two hypothetical members of Congress: one distinctively liberal, and the other
a conservative foil (to see an example of the actual survey question text, see
here). By translating Resurgent Republic survey results into a vote
of 435 members of the House of Representatives, the visuals below show us exactly how conservative (red) or
liberal (blue) an Independent Congress would be.

Update: We added a series of questions from our newest surveys about the economy, tax increases, energy, Medicare, health care reform, troop levels in Iraq and Afghanistan, and cutting the defense budget.
